"Never tends to get that far for me." Jason shrugged. When people tried to apologize to him it normally involved blood and bullets. "So this has really been eating at you?"

"Since the attack Ive been wanting to talk to you about it because of everything it had to wait." It was actually something that had been bothering him ever since the begining of the camp but it was the attack that forced him to make a decision. "It's something I don't want to happen but it may."

"Yeah. Preparedness and all that." Jason said. "As much as you hate to hear it I think we should try to get some of our own weapons. More guns... Bullets... Stuff like that." It was a gun under his pillow that had kept him alive on the streets. Jason hadn't walked around camp without them. "Teach the kids to hide or shoot. We've gotta be able to defend ourselves."

"I personally don't use guns for my own reasons and am unfamiliar with their usage. they are noisy weapons that require much training which would take away from their other training which is more important. If you truly think it's imporant than I'd ask that you'd train only a few you think will be the most helpful and create a plan of defense with their usage." Slade had a bad history with guns and didn't like them but he understood their importance. A gun was better than no weapon at all.

"There's silencers." Jason replied. "We can't fight them with bows and arrows. We don't have the means to do it. Guns are... not easy to come by but there's always black market." He just hated feeling as helpless as he did when that little girl almost got taken. He later found out through Near her name was Jeri. "I couldn't take a shot..." he muttered. "And some kid almost paid."

Slade could see Jason was distressed about the issue, and Slade let out a sigh before looking back at Jason. "I understand that you feel that way. It was my failure for not protecting the mutants of this camp. I will not prevent you from acquiring guns but I have a personal history with them and I refuse to touch them."

"We have to have something. They obviously didn't hold back when they blew the camp sky high." Jason said bitterly. Being blown up once had been enough for Jason when he was 15. But now when he was in a camp of women and children, who had done nothing wrong, it rubbed him the wrong way. "I get it. You've got a history. Sophie won't touch a weapon either."

Slade knew many mutants didn't like guns and he feared that Jason's mission would end up being a failure. "Like I said, take the mutants who are willing and train them. If you need guns I may know a mutant who is skilled in the area of acquiring things and I can point you to him. Will that be enough?"

"I know a guy." Jason said. A black market guy who wouldn't rat him out because what he was doing was as equally illegal as being a mutant. That and the man knew Jason would find a way to kill him if he did. "What about the kids?" He asked. He didn't like showing it but he had always had a soft spot for kids. He just didn't know how to act around them.

The children to always suffer the most, and he could see that the children had a special place within him. "They need to have someone over them that will be in charge of their whereabouts and keeping them safe during any future attacks." Slade had already thought about the issue and had planned on speaking with Dimitri about the decision. He wanted to make sure to get someone who could work well with children and be powerful enough to defend them.

"The two I've been working the closest with is Meg and Alphonse." Jason said. "Near is coming around.... Would one of them help?" Jason folded his arms across his chest. He wanted to believe that one of them could help with the younger children. "I've been teaching anyone who came to the training area."

"I'm glad to hear people are taking the training, as we've seen, our abilities can't always be rellied on. Meg is a little unrelliable because of her ability but I think Alphonse will do well and I'm also considering Esmeralda because of her ability. She's good with kids which is why I placed Jeri in her tent instead of her own. Jeri's ability is still too unstable to be left alone especially in a crisis." Slade had heard about at least two incidents where Jeri lost control and had to be calmed down before she killed someone.

"Right." Jason said thinking of the woman he picked up firewood with. "I can bring something up to her about it. I'd offer but I'm not exactly kid friendly." He knew how important it was to protect the kids, at all costs. However, he was more likely to scare them. "How's the kid taking all this?" This had to be difficult on Jeri. It had been a very close call.

"Its understandable, besides I need you to be in the fray with me keeping any attackers busy so the others can get away." Slade thought about the girl and how her powers could've taken the lives of many mutants if it weren't for the boy who could turn off powers. "She seems to be taking it rather well honestly. I don't think this is the worst experience she's ever had. From what I've been able to gather, it seems like she was a special interest of Dr. Milo Thatch and trust me you don't want to be a special interest. His last special interest is still unstable." Slade thought about the stories Dimitri had shared with him and it made him cringe thinking about the same thing happening to a little girl.

"Sophie told me. Jeri had this nightmare that Sophie got pulled into." Jason said. He didn't envy the girl who walked the plains between dream and reality. There had to be s lot of nightmares lately. "But how are you handling things?"
